Here is a terrible tiny picture of my daughter's sock.  The pattern and the yarn don't really go together but that's ok. Do you see the hearts?  Tomorrow I'll show you the tiny bit of progress I made.

That picture was take with my daughter's camera but the pictures I take from now on should be with my new camera and it is really nice.  It's a Canon Power Shot A2500.  Before my brother-in-law gave it to me he charged the battery and put a put in a SD card.  The biggest problem I think I will have is that it is not a standard battery and  I am afraid I will lose the charger.  It has so many features that will help my picture taking and some that are just fun.  Right now I'm just leaving it on "auto" but the setting I will probably use most is the "snow" setting since I have a white back ground I usually take pictures on.  I'm so excited for the nice weather to come so I can get some cool nature shots and my kids in nature shots.

Yesterday I did play WOW but didn't get much progress.  My 90 is almost done with Hinterlands.  The only other thing I have been doing is sending low level supplies to the next toon I plan to ply with.  When "Mists" came out my son started a hunter and it's stuck at level 13 or so. He's getting all the extra linen, wool, low level potions and low level armor if it's not soul bound.  When I get a new computer or something I plan to level him using dungeons only.   Today I plan to listen to podcasts.

For crafting I've just been working on the ice cream pillow for Amey.  I'm almost done withe the fifth scoop.  Before bed I've been doing a couple of rows on the scarf.  If I get stuck on the ice cream pillow I'll cast on for my husband's sweater.  If I wait till the first I can use it as my dissertation.

When we left the the bag at my parents it had all the toiletries in it so my husband bought me more. He asked what I wanted and I said I didn't care.  Now that I have the things I am realizing that I do have an opinion.  I didn't realize before that I had toothbrush and deodorant preferences.  Not a big deal in the grand scheme of things just interesting to me.  The kids are off school again. I'm making them do little bits of reading and writing and throwing out math questions here and there.  It's difficult for me keep the TV off when it's so cold outside and I wasn't planning to have them home.  Same thing with groceries.  I wasn't planning to have them home so I am running out of things like bread and milk.  My husband will get some on his way home but it's still inconvenient in a first world kind of way.  It think that's all my whining for today, hopefully I'll say something more interesting tomorrow. :)
